World Cup Fakes Busted by CBP

World Cup fever is fueling a counterfeit epidemic — U.S. Customs just seized 1,500 fake jerseys, beanies, and shirts worth over $134K in Indianapolis, part of a nationwide crackdown called “Operation Winner’s Circle.” These fakes, mostly from Hong Kong and headed to global markets, not only rip fans off but fund criminal networks. Brands like Nike, Adidas, and Puma are targeted, with most slipping through online channels. Experts warn: stick to trusted sellers — these scams are getting smarter, and CBP’s mission is to stop them before they reach your doorstep.
